a family member gave me some dc glasses of flash,gl, and batgirl their marked 2000 i think their from the wb store? anybody have any info ?

The date sounds about right for them to be WB glasses. Here's what the WB GL, Batgirl and flash glasses looks like.

^^yep, that's them, did they make any others in the series?

[Riffster]

man i'd love those... i miss the WB store

[Marvelmania]

There was also a Batman, Supes, Wonder Woman and maybe a few more (not real sure). WB also did a 1993 DC set.

i'll check ebay and see if i can find the others.

Everyone,
got a question about theses 1976 Moon PEPSI SUPER SERIES glasses.
i found 22 of them in a box with about 4 rolls of duc tape on it, mint. i'm putting them up for sale on a auction site. but i was told some of those glasses had LEAD and them. is this true? if so, i'll have to remove them quick. thanks and nice website.

I like collecting them, but find them a bit difficult to store and display. I was always in constant fear of them breaking whenever I moved.

There is a nice old gent that sells character glasses at the twice yearly toy show in my area and I usually buy a couple of Superhero glasses from him each time.

Anyone collect those Christopher Reeve Superman glasses (drinking, not specs)? I'm quite fond of those.

I've had a few of these over the years, still have Batman & Robin. I really don't have anywhere to display them properly though, so I've never gone after them. Some of them get pretty pricey as well. I see the Looney Tunes ones a lot at auction & flea markets around here , so maybe the DC glasses weren't distributed out to this half of Pennsylvania as well as Bugs & pals were.

If anyone is looking for the 1976 series, you might want to check out, What a Character! -- Home Page. They sell them. The prices vary, but I think they have them all.

HI Rockie74! I wouldn't worry about them having lead in them as that new law shouldn't effect pre-existing items such as glasses. I really can't say for certan if they had lead in the paint of not though.
I've been collecting character glasses longer than I have Megos. I guess as far back as the mid-80s.
They are hard to display only that they take up so much room! I've been displaying some of mine for over 10 years and haven't lost one yet (keeping my fingers crossed).

[Rockie74]

Ok kool thanks. yea i'm keeping 1 set for my self (Superman, Batgirl, Batman, Wonder Women, Flash, Green lantern, Shazam, Aquaman,) and been check around for the others. would be nice to have. spotted the "The Joker" glass around for $9 to $60 tho, could get pricey, but having something from my childhood would be worth it.

[Marvelmania]

The Joker glass should run around $20-$25. Usually the most expensive one in the set is Green Lantern. These are the moon series I think you're talking about (has different color moons behind the hero) Then there's the non-moon DC series which consists of 7 glasses. Collecting these is great fun so be sure to enjoy yourself and not get too caught up in getting them all right away.
